About this deal

The darkened fabric used on the bedroom section of the tent allows you to lie in a bit longer without waking up with the sun, while large curtained windows enable you to bathe the living/storage area in light. That got us thinking though, that we’re looking at every possible item from Eurohike so it would be good to narrow our search down even further and only look at Eurohike branded products within the 5 – 6 Person Tents category. The cost of Eurohike 5 – 6 Person Tents Needless to say, a 5-berth tent these days is not for five grown-ups, but rather for a family of five where the children are under 10 years or so, but hey ho… Eurohike Rydal 500 Review

Polyester is lightweight but not breathable if there is a coating applied, so condensation is going to be an issue especially with a sewn-in groundsheet. We’re really pleased to have scored Eurohike Rydal 500 5 Person Tent so highly, givimg it 9.9 out of 10, making it well above the average for all 5 – 6 Person Tents. There are however some methods that you can use to determine a product’s quality without needing to physically have it. I touched on it already, the Rydal 500 offers a decent amount of space for an entire family. Sleeping area

To give that price some context we then looked at all of the products available from Go Outdoors in the 5 – 6 Person Tents category. We found 17 items in total. What’s the price of 5 – 6 Person Tents? There isn’t a bespoke carpet for the Rydal 500, but it is compatible with the Eurohike Medium tent carpet– again, not expensive and helps a lot protecting the groundsheet. Eurohike Rydal 500 Pole Repair Kit There’s so much information available online when we’re shopping now, that it’s easy to find lots of detail about products like Eurohike Rydal 500 5 Person Tent. This is of course really helpful, but there’s almost too much information available, so it’s important to know exactly what you’re looking for. The waterproof flysheet and groundsheet with taped seams prevent any moisture getting in from the outside, yet remain breathable with multiple ventilation points so the tent doesn’t become stuffy.

The downside to buying online is that you can’t actually get hold of the product to try it out first. Other manufacturers would not recommend ‘frequent use’ ie. more than a few weeks across the whole year. UV light of the sun can (will) break down the waterproof coating, so if you pitch the Rydal 500 in your garden in May, it is likely that it will lose some or most of its waterproof coating by the end of summer.

Detailed review of the Coleman Mosedale 5 here. When buying 5 – 6 Person Tents, the quality of the product is going to be one of the factors that you really scrutinise before you commit to buying.

Another factor that can be a great indication of product quality is the brand. Brands like Eurohike are of course extremely well known, especially for 5 – 6 Person Tents. Price – as you’d expect the price of a product can be an instantly recognisable factor on what sort of quality you can expect. Whoever came up with the phrase “you get what you pay for” pretty much hit the nail on the head. Whilst it’s not always the case and there are many bargains to be had, you can as a general rule, expect the higher priced products to offer better quality than a the cheapest option. We’ll dive into the price of Eurohike Rydal 500 5 Person Tent in more detail in a moment. The Vango Icarus 500 is very similar to the Eurohike Rydal 500 – detailed review of the Vango Icarus 500 can be found here. The Vango is slightly bigger, and slightly pricier, but there is an option to attach a bespoke awning to the Vango Icarus 500 which increases versatility as well as improves weather protection.
